✅ The European Observatory for Non-Discrimination and Fundamental Rights shares the findings of the surrogacy and sale of children study presented by Mrs Maud de Boer-Buquicchio, Special Rapporteur on the sale and sexual exploitation of children at the 37th session of the United Nations Human Rights Council.

✅ Most of the surrogacy agreements practiced, including in developed countries, are nothing more than the sale of children, regardless of the legal devices used.

✅ Our position is that :

the Surrogacy can only be the subject of a universal and definitive abolition by International Treaties ;

it must be into account, among other Treaties, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the Convention on Slavery and Additional Protocol to the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, especially Trafficking in Women and Children ;
